Application led July 15, 1916. Serial No. 109,426.

@this purpose and specifically to provide av direct arrangement :for supporting a certain -i`i lamp shade or scarf or reflector in connec i tion therewith. In order to accomplish this object the present invention covers a tivo part lamp fixture one of which parts is adapted to be secured to the standard of a portable and the other part can be so displacvgd or modified that another form of lam]'.-.`shade or lamp globe can be accommodatedit` yinother object is to properly insulate the custoniary electric lamp socket.

loythis end a two piece lamp fixture coinposeqll oi wood is provided, one of which pieces is adapted to be secured to the lamp Standard and the other of which pieces is lidapted to be secured to said first piece and to supportl a lamp globe oi' shade.

These andv other features7 capabilitiesand `;advantagcs of the invention will appear from the subjoined detailed descriptioiiof several specific embodiments thereof illustrated iiixtlie accompanying drawings, in which- Figure 1 is lamp having a reversible transparent or transluscent globe positioned for directing the larger portion ot'y the light-rays emanating from the lamp upwardly,` which globe and lamp are supported by means constructed according to the present invention. Fig. 2 is an elevation. illustrating a lamp differing from that shown in Fig. l only in having a reversible globe positioned ior directing the larger portion of such rays downwardly.

Fig. 2 is a fragmental view partially in section showing means for securing the globe to the globe-supporting bracket.

Fig. 'Z is a detached elevational viewof the main parts of the present invention separated from one another.

rlhe lower socket receiving member 10 and the upper supporting member 11 illustrated in F l and 7 constitute the main parts of the present invention. The lower socket recelfing member 10 comprises essentially a diminished dowel pin l2 and an enlarged body portion 13. The upper portion of the body portion 13 is chamered out to form the recess or chamber 14 and the lower porM tion of the body portion 13 and the dowel pin 12 are provided with a continuous bore 15 in communication with the recess or chamber .14.

The upper end of provided with an annular flange 1G ad- Jaceiit to a bead 17 formed below the same and set back from said bead 17 to form an annular shoulder 1S to receive the lower end member 11, .the lower end ci' the supporting peripherv being provided with the bead 19 which is disposed adjacent `to the head1?- when the members l0 and 11 are connected The flange 16is provided to one another. with a recess 2O which registers with the recess 21 in the lower end of the supporting member 11 extending through the bead 19 and coperates with said recess 21 to form an opening-for the lamp controlling nieans hereinafter to be rllhe supporting member 11 as shown in Fig. fl has airannular wall meniber through which memberv 11 is in position for use. lower inner periphery of the member 11 is preferably recessed to receive the flange 16.

The upper endV oi' the supporting member globe supportingiseat 22 and along the upper end of its outer periphery there is preferably formed a bead 23.

the body portion 13 is member around its outer' extends a lamp when the The l be secured in the upper end of the hollow When the memberslO and 11 as aforesaid are in placeY for use, the dowel pin 12 -will standard 24'which is similar to the standard 24" illustrated in Fig. l, through the borey 25 of whichstandard 24 extend the electric cords 26, such cords 26 extending up through the bore 15 of the member 1,0 and being connected to the lower end of the lamp-socket 27 which is disposed in the recess or chamber 14 of the member 10. The lampsocket 27 is provided "with the usual chain guide 28 which extends through the opening formed by the registering recesses 20 and 21 to permit a chain 29 of the socket27 to extend\ down the `outside of the members 10 and 11. As illustrated in Fig. 4, the lampsocket 2.7 extends up into the member ll and terminates below the upper edge thereof, the lamp bulb l30 extending upward'therefrom and into the globe 31, the lower edge of which rests in the seat 22 of the member j 11. The members 10 and 11 are composed 'of an insulating material preferably wood as illustrated. In view thereof it will be seen that the lamp-socket 27 will be entirely insulated and inclosed lby such members 10 and 11.

In the embodiment villustrated in Fig. al', a duplex globe is illustrated having a light reiecting portion 33 and a light diffusing portion 3l, the globe being positioned with its light reiecting portion adjacent to the member 11 to produce the inverted lighting e'fect. Whenlthe direct. lighting efi'ect is to be produced, the globe is inverted, as illustrated in Fig. 2, a'nd if the supporting portion 0f the light diffusing portion Ell is of greater dimension than the supporting por-v tion of the light reflecting portion. as appears in the present illustration, a different Supporting member will be provided` such as the supporting member 11 of Fig. havmeans of which a lamp shade 3S may be supported in the usual manner.

' In the embodiment shown in Fig. 2, there is provided the globe supporting member 11, having an upwardly projecting flange l0 provided .with upper recesses 4:1 to coperate -with the lower recesses l2 of an annular member 4:3, which recesses -ll and l2 of the iange 40 and annular member 13 coperates with one another tol form pockets for the springs il, which are strained against the head l5 of the snap buttons lo connected to said heads l5 by the stem 47, the buttons -16 being disposed on 'the outer peripheries of the flange 4() and annular I nember l, while theheads l5 are disposed ilrthe pockets formed by the recesses l1 and 42. The annular member 43 is secured to the flange E10 in any suitable manner. lvhen in c amping position, the buttons l? are strained against the lower end of the inclined surface 48 globes 49.
